I think Texas law allows family members or organizational members to claim a body with the intent of performing funeral rites. I believe all you need to do is submit a report of death to the county registrar. Muslim burial involves washing the body, a funeral cloth and head towards Mecca ( think thats it) I don't see where this practice violates any Texas laws. This is clearly an "I hate Muslims" thing.

And just to be clear even the most religious cemetery will put someone in a vault, casket or not, there's zero health risk. You know what there IS a health risk in? Not having a facility Muslim citizens feel respects their traditions and thus causing them to do as Dahn said and invoke the law that allows them to just take the body on a 'yea don't worry we got this here's the death certificate' and possibly not having a professional handle it! Why it's almost as if cemeteries exist FOR the public health or something!

For lack of a general Texas thread. What's the deal with car inspections now? Mine just expired and I'm hearing even if I get inspected I won't get a sticker so it makes no point until my registration is up.

You can't be cited for having an out of date inspection sticker unlike before, so some departments are slow to get the message and are sometimes issuing citations despite it no longer being an offense.

Mine just expired and I'm hearing even if I get inspected I won't get a sticker so it makes no point until my registration is up. In fact the inspection has to be within 90 days of the registration expiration so even if you get an inspection now, you'll have to get another one right around when your registration expires.

Here's the site the DMV set up to help people get their heads around the new registration sticker stuff: http://twostepsonesticker.com/ Basically if your current inspection is up before your reg, you have to get an inspection. The inspection will go on file with the DMV and they'll just mail you a new sticker when it's time. The new sticker counts for both.

The registration/inspection stuff is weird. I had my registration up in February, and inspection ran out in June. As far as I can tell, even though my old inspection sticker had expired, it would be meaningless for me to go get my car inspected now, and I'll have to get it done in the 90 days before my registration expires next year.

I don't think that you'd get pulled over this year for not having a inspection sticker just because DPS/local LE are supposed to be giving people grace periods while the new law goes into effect. But in your case I'm not sure because the law went into effect in March and you have a February sticker. Does that site I posted not have explain?

Using the thing that says when I have to inspect the car, it just tells me to have the car inspected within 90 days of my next registration. That's pretty much all it says about my situation.

I'm not going to say the Rick Perry indictment isn't a waste of time and money but clearly what he did was against the spirit of the law if not the letter of the law. I believe both parties were pieces of poo poo and I think prosecuting it is a tremendous waste of time and money but what he did probably should be illegal even if it was technically not. This is a completely different animal though because 1. He has already been slapped on the wrist for a similar crime and 2. He is a motherfucking attorney, one of the most powerful ones in the country, he doesn't get to play ignorance of securities law much less after they already gave him a free pass. No, politics aside we shouldn't allow attorneys to repeatedly violate the law after they have already been told not to, Texas disbars attorneys for being addicted to alcohol.

When Perry was indicted everyone was falling over themselves to condemn the indictment as baseless and politically motivated. I'm not seeing poo poo in defense of Ken Paxton, which leads me to believe that the party machinery thinks he's hosed.

The Perry thing was a case of him breaking the spirit of the law and maybe the letter and more an example of him being a scumbag than anything. This is just super clear obvious law breaking.
